Political capital is expended by taking positions and actually doing things. The way to win at politics is to hoard political capital like Smaug until you retire from politics and all the political capital is instantaneously converted into real capital via sinecure directorships

keep punching joe posted:Check the pressure gauge if it works for a bit then shuts off. If it's low you need to open the tap and fill it up (and there's probably a leak somewhere). Yeah I pretty much know what the issue is. Used to have to top it up regularly because of a slow leak in the pressure relief valve, then plumber messed with it so now when it heats up the pressure jumps to 3bar and shuts off. So either the pressure valve or the expansion vessel needs replacing. Debatable how much of this is old boiler vs iatrogenic

Thassa load of bollocks imo. Our lil guy sits in the window like an ornament all afternoon and mounrfully howls at any other dogs that walk by - she's just saying "hello, but also this is my spot so don't get any ideas". I'm pretty sure she's not in distress, cause she doesn't otherwise move unless I'm offering her cheese. She also does have a poor sense of time, but the level of joyful freakout definitely ramps up when my wife's gone 3 days rather than 15 mins.

NotJustANumber99 posted:Theres probably threads on this website that we've posted in that, should the names be known in court, it would not look too clever so I can see why something like that might happen. Being part of a WhatsApp that bants about rape probably does speak to the mindset of the alleged rapist though. I don't really see the equivalence you're making there. Maybe if WhatsApp had existed 20years ago in the age of ironic edgelords I wouldn't have objected to being in a pro-rape bants group, but now I would have a big fucken problem with that, and would have major suspicions about anyone who presented themselves that way
